| ATA taekwondo |
| Amount: $150.00 per month |
| Posted by: Jeffrey in Pensacola, FL. | Posted: February 2nd, 2009 04:02PM |
| Type: FEES | Dojo or School: ATA Black Belt Academy |
| This school offers a 3 year contract at $95 a month, 2 years at $125 a month, or 1 year for $150 a month. Why should someone have to lock into a contract and pay such high fees? This is not to mention a $65 test fee for promotion. Kind of seems like an MCDOJO if you ask me. When I asked about the basic program, not including the weapons or xma classes, I was told that I could only sign up for 3 months at $295 plus $95 enrollment fee, plus $175 for the basic equipment.After the basic program I could only enroll in the leadership or masters program. I am looking for another school that is not all about the money and competition. Does anyone know what I am talking about, or had a similar experience? Should people have to sign a year or more contract to take taekwondo classes, or is this just a bad area? |

| Type: kickboxing | Dojo or School: School |
| I signed up for King-Fu but ended up taking kick-boxing classes that i wasn't told would end up taking, if i want to take the Kung-Fu classes there is an extra fee. After i signed the contract and gave my first month they came up with all this other fees and equipment that you HAVE to buy because of the mats they have etc. I was ripped off. |

| We were very excited for our kids and we thought we were getting a good deal but since we've joined there has been nothing but additional fees and costs. $175/month for lessons, $340+ for one set of sparring equipment; $55 testing fees. It has been less than 2 months and we are laying out some big bucks. I see kids with high level belts that don't seem to do the moves much better than my beginning child. And I wonder if it is more about how much you pay to get to the next level or the moves. There are others that started at the same time that didn't have to buy sparring equipment and are at higher belts. So I don't understand the leveling, the costs, the required contracts. |

| Type: ITA | Dojo or School: KC Jones |
| $119 initial month fee, $27 fee to the ita after 2 months of enrollment, $60 for belt tests, and cash for sparring gear once you hit green belt. The ita uses macho sparring gear, which you can get a full set of online for about 50-70 bucks, but since the ita logo isn't on those you have to buy the same exact equipment for much more. All in all its about 1600/year. Good experience, but a little pricey for me to recommend if for just anybody. |

| Type: Karate | Dojo or School: PAL |
| I was involved with ATA for Taekwondo back in 1982, back then a blackbelt test cost $100 or more. The higher rank tests cost much more and alot more work and effort. They also had higher failing rates which costs more to retake exam. Back then I paid $40 per month. Later I started working with the Police Athletic League with Shotokan. It was a fraction of the price but test were not as often and classes and locations were more limited. Quality of instruction was still good, it all boils down to time and effort with practice. The more I think back on it, I think the Pal was the best way to go. It was more like a club. Also many schools dont run commercial dojos, yet they do offer classes very cheap at local public school cafeterias as part of the community educational program offered by the local college. Some of these schools are not found in the yellow pages yet promote many of the local tournaments open to all ranks and styles. I also seen some classess offered at the local gyms |

| Type: Tae Kwon Doe | Dojo or School: Mastery Martial Arts |
| I have two children interested in martial arts. We went to a studio that offered 4 classes for 2 children at $118. We thought great lets check this place out. After the intial class we had \"the meeting\" with the sensei. The cost to attend and become a blackbelt will $9600 for two children. This requires a down payment of $3600 and then 360 a month. My children want to learn a skill, while the sensei want to burden us with the equivilant of another car payment. I am willing to spend money on my childs training, but $100 mo per child is more reasonable than a year contract at $9600. We live in N. Providence, any reccomendations are welcome. FYI: We haven,t committed to the contract, we are currently taking some time to think about it. |

| Type: TaeKwonDo | Dojo or School: John Emmons' TaeKwonDo |
| Mr. Emmons offers three different plans, a 1-year agreement for $110 a month, 2-years for $100, and 3-years for $90.00. This is the rate for one person. There is also a second and third family member discount. he has classes 6 days a week, and there is no limit to the amount of classes you can take. While there are extra fees for testings, tournaments, and gear, it is all worth while. |

| Spent some time looking for a martial arts school in my area. I was very happy with the head instructor Maurey Levitz and most of the other instructors there. Each night's instructor seems to "unofficially specialize" in different aspects of the art or fitness so when I want Kata and a spirited teacher - Mon ; Conditioning - Wed. or Thurs is for me; ; Judo, technique and practical application - Fri. Its always beneficial and there is never an idle moment for those looking for to challenge themselves. |

| Type: Karate | Dojo or School: Sharkey\'s Karate Studio |
| I have two boys who wanted to do martial arts. Sharkey\'s was known to be the home of some of the elite martial art athletes on the circuit today so I was expecting to pay at least $250-$300 for both. Come to find out that the 1 year agreement was only $115.90/month ($225.00 down) and the second child was only $50.00/month ($50.00 down due at signing). I can\'t believe we are receiving elite sport karate training from one of the most well known coaches in sport karate today at an extremely affordable price. |

| Type: Taekwondo | Dojo or School: |
| Is anyone familiar with Master Chins in North Raleigh area? My son recently started a "trial" month there whereby he can go to classes anytime they're offering the beginners level for the 1st month at no charge. However, I notice that one of the staff members always wants to meet with me after each class to see how my son is enjoying the classes. They also continue to ask if we think we'll be joining or in other words signing a 1 year contract at $129.00 per mo. for unlimited classes per month. Is this the normal procedure with Taekwondo organizations? Also, is $129.00 per mo. a rip-off? Should I shop around? |
